On the 15th July, Panathlon delivered the final Primary Panathlon of the academic year. Held at Southfields College, in Wandsworth, 16 children from 3 local primary schools (Broadwater, Penwortham and Furzedown) attended the coaching session. Each student had the opportunity to take part in 8 different activities including Vollybat, Boccia Blast, New Age Kurling, Precision Beanbag, Messi Football, Parachute Popcorn, Table Cricket and Flight Path.
The children were split in to 4 teams to and once they were familiar with the activities they then competed against the other teams with a Gold medal awaiting the champions, presented by Paralympic Gold medallist, Tim Prendergast. Tim said “It’s fantastic to see these students here trying out a range of activities and having fun. I hope it’s these types of opportunities that encourage students to continue with sports and go on to develop their skills in a chosen sport as they become older. “
In the end it was the yellow team from Furzedown who pinched the win and we hope they will bring their expertise to the Regional Primary Competitions next Summer.
Thank you to Wembley National Stadium Trust for all you support.
